While much of the media focused on the historic WBO heavyweight title fight between Joseph Parker and Andy Ruiz Jr that took place in New Zealand this past weekend, there was another story brewing on the sidelines that seemed to involve everyone in boxing from the southern hemisphere and one of the most notorious names in the sport from the past 50 years.

By John J. Raspanti: The timing was perfect.
My wife and I were in Las Vegas on vacation. She liked to gamble. I could take it or leave it. Mostly leave it.
There were two fighters training in Sin City that weekend. I liked one quite a bit. The other, in my opinion, was a showoff.
We did the “tourist” thing for a day and returned to our room at the Flamingo Hotel.
The Flamingo was fun. It was old and gaudy and loaded with reminders of its notorious history. Old-time gangster Ben “D

Particulars: Juan Manuel Lopez vs. Wilfredo Vazquez Jr., October 29th LIVE on Fight Network.
The Story: This all Puerto-Rican battle is probably, sans those living on the boxing-crazy island...for boxing junkies only. And there’s only one outcome we ghouls, we hard-core adherents to the world’s hardest sport can hope for - a big KO.

Alvarez stops Smith to win WBO title: By John J. Raspanti
Canelo Alvarez captured the WBO super middleweight championship by stopping game former titleholder Liam Smith (23-1-1, 13 KOs) in round nine at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas Saturday night.
Unlike some recent opponents, like Erislandy Lara and Floyd Mayweather, Alvarez (48-1-1, 34 KOs) didn’t have to chase Smith. The Liverpool native came right at him in the first few rounds.

By John J. Raspanti: After knocking out Amir Khan with a thunderous right hand four months ago, Canelo Alvarez spoke of fighting WBA and IBF titleholder Gennady Golovkin "later this year."
Apparently talk is cheap. The bout never materialized. Both sides blamed each other.
Instead of Golovkin, Alvarez (47-1-1, 33 KOs), who’s now fighting as a junior middleweight, will face undefeated Liverpool native Liam Smith this Saturday at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, on HBO pay-per-view.
